For all users of "cpmtools"!
Especially Nathanael!
Thanks for letting me post this!
Tony Nicholson made many 8-inch floppy images available.
Many of them contain filenames with '/', as this character has
no special meaning under CP/M.
Sadly, the "cpmtools" package failes miserably when copying files
out of images on all systems using '/' as a directory seperator.
So I played a little bit with the source code:
"cpmcp" now automatically replaces any '/' with '_' when copying out
and also any '_' with '/' when copying into an image.
A new option '-s c' to specify another character or to diasable
the conversion.
An option '-u' to store all files in uppercase when copying out.
Compiling a fully working cpmtools package will need some knowledge,
since it often also depends on the libdsk package.
Testing was done, files with '/'s were copied out and back in successfully.
Hope this is useful
Martin
HOWTO CONVERT AND EXTRACT:
I tried to post a uuencoded form of the tgz but
it was rejected, so I post as a fallback solution
the "UNLOADed" version of "patchtgz.hex":
Converting back:
Copy the hexdump between the two "==== 8< ===="
into a file named "patchtgz.hex".
The file needs to be in MSDOS line endings format.
To convert it, you could do.
Note: The original file will be overwritten!
$ todos <patchtgz.hex >patchtgz.dos
$ mv patchtgz.dos patchtgz.hex
Transfer patchtgz.hex to your CP/M system or emulator
and load it.
A0>load patchtgz
FIRST ADDRESS 0100
LAST ADDRESS 05FF
BYTES READ 0500
RECORDS WRITTEN 0A
This will produce patchtgz.com, which in reality is
a gzipped tar archive containing my patch.
So after transfering it back, you can do:
Listing...
$ tar tvf patchtgz.com

code base for cpmtools and would love to incorporate it. Please specify which

Only to discover you'd posted the patch 7 minutes before I got here. Nevertheless, I think this will be very useful in the future. Just one thing:
Vol. 154 contains a file with an "@" that also needs special handling.

at the bottom of my post.
I wrote it extra detailed, so you should have no problems converting it.
The diff was made with the last 2.21-snapshot but also works with the
stable release 2.20 since cpmcp.c didn't change.

"@" is a legal character, why do you want to do something with it?

The "extra detail" being necessary for me, of course :-) I can build cpmtools 2.20, and I was able to extract your patches, but now how do I merge them into the cpmtools source?

But I believe @ is illegal in (at least some earlier versions of) MS-DOS, though not, apparently, under DOS 6.22.

These are the versions of cpmtools I have verified the patch applies:
http://www.moria.de/~michael/cpmtools/files/cpmtools-2.20.tar.gz
http://www.moria.de/~michael/cpmtools/files/cpmtools-2.21-snapshot.tar.gz
I try to describe all possibilities, hope I won't miss something.
1) You build cpmtools manually from the sources:
Just after extracting the cpmtools sources and my patch, which should give you
two directories "cpmtools-2.2X" and "patches".
cd into the top level directory of cpmtools and run
$ patch -p1 <../patches/filename_mangle
Now continue with the build sequence...
2) You are using the "official" build commands of the distribution:
I'm using Slackware and love its simple build scripts, so I can only guess :-)
There should be a step in the build system, where all patches are applied.
And there often exists a subdirectory "patches", where they all are stored.
If a file named "series" exists add the name of my patch "filename_mangle"
to it.
Start the build process, my patch should be applied...

I took a different approach by writing a perl script wrapper to extract all files and handles additional cases, specifically
1) maps all illegal chars for Windows
2) maps all reserved names for Windows
3) maps conflicting names for different user areas
Additionally my script creates a log file that shows for each file, its name on the CPM disk, a hash value of the file to allow for duplicate checking and the mapped file name
The script works by doing a cpmls to get the list of files for all user areas. Then for each user area the files are checked to see if they need mapping, if not a simple cpmcp is used to extract all of the files from the user area. If files need to be mapped then cpmcp is used for each file to extract to a specific mapped file name.
I have posted the script at
